I genuinely cannot believe another Patreon-Anniversary is upon us and a 4th one at that! From the bottom of my heart, thank you time and time again for sharing spaces and a sense of community with me year after year.
As always, I have cooked up a little surprise for you all again this year and you can expect to see it showcased on December 16th! And as an added bonus… you can expect to find this surprise showcased somewhere even cooler in early 2025…! 👀
Moving into the new year provides the usual opportunity for fresh starts and tackling new goals together and I would like to hear your thoughts on what we can do from here! Are there channels you’d like to see added? Monthly rewards you’d like to see implemented? Community activities we can try to tackle? ETC?
Throughout the month of December I will be asking if folks have any thoughts for the new year updates — keep your eyes peeped!
Are you missing MFF? Do you wish you had a spot to snag a variety of artists’ wares in one go? Do we have a surprise for you!
We are excited to announce a WINTER POP UP MARKET featuring 5 incredible artists! Dozens of items from multiple creators all in ONE SHOP! All items will be shipped together from one location with bonus goodies and in some cases… exclusive items ONLY available within the pop up!

The winter months are a forever whirlwind, but that feels anticipated and also weirdly exciting moving into December! I have a VERY BUSY few weeks lined up, but a chunk of that is spending time with some amazing people so I don’t feel TOO overwhelmed!
I have MFF followed immediately with PDX Christmas, a little winter getaway where a few of my friends are visiting and then a local market right before Christmas!
Until the new year… get some rest and enjoy your holidays, friends!
